Citrix Systems, Inc, the global leader in access infrastructure solutions, today announced its annual computing event, Citrix iForum Gauteng, to be held at Vodaworld on 24 July 2003.
"Citrix iForum Gauteng 2003 is a critical event for IT decision-makers who are examining enterprise infrastructure software solutions to help their organisations boost business performance and improve the bottom line," says Chris Norton, channel manager for Citrix South Africa.
According to Norton, Citrix`s enterprise infrastructure software is receiving an upsurge in local attention from companies such as Sasol, Engen, Telkom, Nampak and many other leading organisations from a wide range of industries.
"Many companies are turning to Citrix`s solutions to help them roll-out applications faster, improve business performance, enable mobility, and to address their information security and business continuity planning needs," explains Norton.
"CIOs around the globe are moving toward an infrastructure that provides simpler ways to give their users a consistent user experience and instant access to IT services - from anywhere. And they want that same infrastructure to lower and stabilise the cost of computing."
Citrix iForum Gauteng 2003 is the event of the year to find out more about how and why access infrastructure solutions work in the local environment.
There will be an exhibition area, and sessions will include presentations from senior international and local speakers, as well as Citrix customers, throughout the day. The conference will feature breakout sessions, ideal for network managers, systems engineers, CIOs and senior decision-makers: these are divided into business and technical strands. They will focus on mobility, business continuity, security, integration and IT administration, demonstrating how specific business and technical issues can be overcome and illustrating the benefits that can be gained by implementing Citrix technology.
